Top ovens 2018

Nowadays, a modern housewife cannot imagine her kitchen without its main attribute - the oven. If earlier the oven was associated only with pies and baked potatoes, then modern models can boast of such functions as a steam oven, a grill, and some can even replace a microwave oven. The market is developing and, more often than not, finding an assistant for many years of service has recently become increasingly difficult.

Oven selection criteria

Conventionally, the choice of oven is divided into 4 criteria:

Heating method

There are two ways - using gas or electricity. Gas ovens are considered less convenient and safe than electric ovens. Devices of this type cannot accurately calibrate the temperature to suit their needs, and a gas leak can lead to very tragic consequences, but modern devices are protected against such situations, so there is no need to talk about high danger.

Electric ovens are the complete opposite. In such devices, you can adjust the temperature of the heating element to your needs and set fine operation settings that are missing in gas ovens. But even in such devices there is some risk - for example, overloading the electrical network can lead to its failure, and if the oven is used frequently, you will have to incur serious costs.

Embedding method: dependent and independent

Dependent type of installation refers to devices included with the hob, therefore, the installation space is very limited - it will not be possible to install such ovens inside a furniture set.

The independent installation method applies to stoves that do not have a hob. They are much smaller and can be installed in cabinets or placed on the floor or windowsill of your kitchen;

Oven volume

It all depends on the number of people who will eat dishes from the oven. For a small family of three people, a device with a volume of 37 to 45 liters is quite enough. For large families, 50 to 70 liters will be more suitable;

Additional functions

This is a secondary criterion when choosing an oven, but some functions make cooking much easier:

Convection – thanks to the fan installed inside, the food is fried evenly, since a stream of hot air blows on it from different sides. Thanks to the spit, kebab can be cooked directly in the oven, since a special device will slowly turn the food, baking it even more evenly.

It is also worth paying attention to the way you control the oven. Mechanical control is considered more reliable, but it does not have the ability to fine-tune the device’s functions, which a touch screen provides. It is less reliable, since high voltage surges can damage or even destroy the panel. When using such devices, you need to be careful and purchase electric current stabilizers that will prevent unpleasant surprises.

The number of heating elements in the device plays an important role for those who cook a lot. The more there are, the higher the possibility of baking several dishes at the same time.
